My daughter was supposed to go home with her boyfriend, but they both contracted corona, making this year's GW holiday a bit lonely.
Tonight I am quietly tasting "Kako" by myself, which I had prepared to drink with him whom I will meet for the first time.
Eigo Kawashima's "Sake to Tears, Man and Woman" is playing in my mind.
Good evening, Mr. Calimero!
Your daughter and her boyfriend have contracted corona and I miss them so much 😅 I was looking forward to seeing you.
Have a good drink and let Eigo heal you 😋.
Good evening, ma-ki-.
I miss you since you are my only daughter: ☺️
My boyfriend was quite nervous about meeting me and now he might be relieved (lol).
Thank you. Kako and Eigo-san are healing me: ☺️
San-do Hozasu Go-no Brewery.
Following the Hozasu 4-nouzou, we sampled the Go-nouzou and compared them!
In addition to the standard San-do brew, which is made from rice grown in the Kikuchi River basin and is a "live" brew, the Hozu standard is made without pesticides or fertilizers, and the Go-No-Brew is brewed in a wooden vat.
I noticed for the first time that the upper right portion of the label is casually designed with the characters "4", "伍" and "伍" in large letters!
and "4" and "5" on the upper right part of the label!
It has the same banana and melon-like aroma as the Four Farmer's Brewery, with a slight smoky nuance.
Compared to the Shi-No-Brew, the wildness nuance is a little milder and the taste is more mellow, and the elegant expression stands out. A more refined Hoso, it is also the best!
San-do Ho-Masu Shi-No-Brewery.
We had a GW lunchtime drink with my daughter's classmate and his family, whom we have been indebted to on a regular basis.
We started with a toast to the Hozasu Yononoso that we got at the Sansho Shinen!
It has an aroma like banana and melon, a rich sweetness, and a wild and complex flavor!
Lunchtime drinking in the second half of GW was at an eel restaurant in Sangubashi with 5 sake pairings. First, Yamada-Nishiki Ni-No-Sai from Sanndo: ❤️
［Hamamatsu Drinking
We found a rare brand that is hard to drink in our hometown and ordered it along with our Drink Crust Order ✨.
Sansudo 2024 Kago Gonouzou".
The aroma of rice with a strong alcohol content, the gas feeling on the tip of the tongue, the deep juicy flavor, and the minerality that shifts to sweetness and finishes with a pleasant aftertaste and a unique aroma that leaves a lasting impression on the nose and palate.
It has been a long time since I have tasted "Sansho", it tastes like a trip, how delicious!
Now, we are here just in time for the Hamamatsu Festival, so we are going to stroll around downtown a bit more 🚶.
Good morning, Mr. Gyve. This sake is waiting in the refrigerator. It was available at a sake brewery opening and is rare even in Kyushu! The flavor sounds delicious and I'm looking forward to it 🍶.
Hi Gula!
I envy you that you already had it in stock 🥰.
It's been quite a while since I was able to drink a rare bottle of "Sansho", so I have some drunken memories ✨.
Please open it and taste it 🍶.
Aromatic and complex with a touch of wildness
The taste gets more sophisticated every year.
Excellent balance with the nuances of the wooden vat
My personal favorite.
